Den Gamle By (The Old Town) is a 5-star world class experience, and is under the patronage of Her Majesty the Queen.

Den Gamle By (The Old Town) is a total experience in a genuine environment of houses, streets, living rooms, chambers and atmosphere from times past. It is a living and breathing experience of what it was like to live and work in a Danish market town, as it was in the old days.

The Old Town is a unique museum, welcoming more than 3 million visitors over the course of the last 10 years. Meet the people and characters of yesteryear, experience life as it was in their living rooms and kitchens; and smell the flowers right in their own gardens. Try out old children’s games, or why not go on an exploration through-out the museums extensive exhibitions? Pat the horses and visit the chickens. Have a pint in the Beer Cellar and enjoy a cup of coffee and a cake in the tea garden. Smell, taste and try it yourself.
